Simply sprinkle the glass beads over the paint or coating while wet. Or follow the instructions on your pavement marking equipment. Let dry completely before use. Approximately 5 pounds of glass beads will coat 1 gallon of paint. For arts & crafts, these beads can be used to create reflective effects in mixed media applications. Also great for weighted blankets and sand blasting. **Heavy application on walkways is not recommended. Beads may become slippery based on the application/adhesive used. DO NOT USE on wide markings where foot traffic will occur. ## Features - HIGHEST QUALITY & PERFORMANCE: Our reflective glass microbeads are uniform in size and clarity, round in shape (95%+).

Smaller beads the opposite. Smaller beads especially high index are the best for signs and curb marking. Larger beads better for pavement and streets. In Crafts and art projects size affects texture… **Q: could you mix this into a clear resin (not just surface applied) so that it might act as a light diffuser?** A: I don’t think so. Read that you should not mix into something you’ll lose the reflective property. **Q: One pound bag for $15.65, and 2 one pound bags (two pounds) for $83.20?** A: Looks like someone is selling the same-ish product…for a lot more **Q: how do you apply to vertical surface?** A: I’m thinking you could apply beads to packing tape or something similar and then apply to vertical surface. Possibly after paint racks up a bit. Leave till paint is completely dry and possibly cured. You will have a learning curve but you could even practice with cheap beads first that or other similar medium. ## Frequently Bought Together - Reflective Glass Beads (1 LB Bag) | for Road Marking, Curb Paint, Traffic Paint, Pavement Striping, Parking Lots, Crosswalks, Driveways, Airports, Traffic Signs, Painting, Arts & Crafts - INSL-X TP221009A-01 Acrylic Latex Traffic Paint, 1 Gallon, White - Reflective Glass Powder (1 LB Bag) for Road Marking, Curb Paint, Traffic Paint, Pavement Striping, Parking Lots, Crosswalks, Driveways, Airports, Traffic Signs, Painting, Arts & Crafts --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.gr/products/129683616-reflective-glass-beads-1-lb-bag-for-road-marking-curb](https://www.desertcart.gr/products/129683616-reflective-glass-beads-1-lb-bag-for-road-marking-curb) --- *Product available on Desertcart Greece* *Store origin: GR* *Last updated: 2026-09-22*
